26. In the Dark

7/26- In the Dark

After the final battle, there was a period when Harry couldn't quite think straight. It was before the crippling fear that made him retreat from the world, and after the deep-rooted terror of the months of hunting. It was as though he was stumbling around in the dark, all dazed as he went from award funeral to award ceremony, from graveyard to the Minister's office, unable to feel anything but fatigue. It was just dark, as if everything was very far away.

But then, Harry had always liked the dark.
